US Patent # 6,613,198
Pulsed Arc Molecular
Beam Process
Pulsed Arc Molecular Beam Process
Overview
his patent teaches a way to create new forms of matter in thin film
coatings. It can allow very rapid prototyping. The process involves
preparing a material in which a gas mixture is subjected to a temperature
of at least 1,000 degrees Celsius while its pressure is increased to
at least 1,000 Torr. The pressurized hot gas mixture, which contains
inert gas and fullerene ions, is then quenched by decreasing its temperature
to less than 500 degrees Celsius in a period of about 1 millisecond,
and decreasing its pressure to less than about 1 Torr in a period of
less than 10 milliseconds.
